you are traded as a shoo-in for the SP Bureau. You? is The SP , Switzerland has now set up a selection Commission. I have not communicated to its President Markus Notter, that I am available. The timing and the sequence for me were so logical. Because my Name came up on several occasions, I would like to rapidly create clarity.
Why you say? I have almost six years as the Co-General Secretary of the SP Switzerland, in the Background, party work – with a passion. In June of 2018 I have been in the national Council, and now in October for the first time, directly elected from slipping. Now I am very much looking forward more to the content shape – particularly in the Social and family policy. These topics interest me very much and are extremely important, in particular, a social Reform of the retirement or affordable health insurance premiums.
of Course, the election result is not good. But a big part of it is explainable by the fact that many of the voters give the climate a priority.
you are not Afraid to take on a party that has just run in the worst election result in a hundred years? I do not agree with the analysis that the SP would be in a poor state. Our membership numbers are on the rise. We have conducted a dedicated campaign. Of course, the election result is not good. But a big part of it is explainable by the fact that many voters wanted to give the climate a priority and that is why the Greens chose. I can understand that. But the SP remains well positioned.
After the election defeat surprised by this analysis. With the premium and of the transparency initiative, with our Expertise in the Social, economic and European policy, we are placed in the content well and also in terms of personnel. I just hit the 13 new SP-Parliamentarians, and was delighted to see how proficient and motivated you.
put on the principle of hope: they hope that the voters share alone rising again. In almost all cantonal elections, the last time the SP has made very good results. Therefore, I am convinced that as soon As in addition to the climate increasingly social, and economic topics are in the focus, will also benefit the SP again. In addition, we are the expert force for the implementation of a socially responsible energy policy.
The Juso demanding that the SP be a movement and kompromisslosere left to do. A big strength of the SP is that we have preserved our identity in Movement, though we assume at the same time in parliaments and Executive bodies responsible and committed to work on compromises. The SP embodies movement and participation in Government. It would be a mistake, one of these two legs give up. Unlike other social democratic parties in Europe, we have lost the contact to the base never.
The leadership of Christian Levrat is one of our trump cards. The shadow side is that the other Party exponents acquisitions too little responsibility.
you sound as if your party had no problems. , The leadership of Christian Levrat is one of our trump cards. The shadow side is that the other Party exponents acquisitions too little responsibility. It was pleasant to see in the Christian Levrat policy, because he saw the direction, and had the strength to take this. This Phase is over, no matter who takes over as President.
what do you mean? We all are now asked to take on more responsibility. That’s why I see the change in the Bureau as an opportunity. We can make the diversity and excellence of this party more visible, which will also help us in the elections.
Levrat was dominant? We have very much benefited from him, even in terms of real politics, we were able to starch from a minority position, thanks to Levrats achieve a lot. I don’t make him a reproach, but the rest of us – me included.
What to bring to the new leadership a person? must be an enthusiastic Person, which can bring out the potentials in our party.
a Lot of call for a young Swiss-German woman. A woman stands in the foreground, but their age is secondary. The German part of Switzerland has more of a priority because we currently have with Christian Levrat and group chief Roger Nordmann, a French-speaking double-top. But even this criterion is not absolute.
be honest: When I heard twelve years ago, for the first time that Christian Levrat stands as the SP President, to the discussion, I had to Google him first.
SP-Doyen Rudolf Strahm criticized, the SP is lacking today is a figurehead in the German part of Switzerland. I disagree: even Though he is Welsh, is Christian Levrat of the most present party President – also in German-speaking Switzerland. I places the Problem among the media: they always demand to the President and to give other politicians a platform, no matter how competent you are. This extreme personalization I think is unhealthy.
Call name: Who do you see at the top of the party? I take me also with a good feeling from the race, because I see many who come to this office in question.
We do not see so many. At the Moment the request is hung in the profile too high: It is demanded from the candidates a lot of parliamentary experience, a large network and what I don’t know everything. To be quite honest: When I heard twelve years ago, for the first time that Christian Levrat stands as the SP President, to the discussion, I had to Google him first. You have to give a Person the Chance in this Ministry grow.
Barbara Gysi, Mattea Meyer, Jacqueline Badran and Cédric Wermuth – and if need be, Min Li Marti, or Mathias Reynard are Traded. you forget Priska Seiler count or new national councillors as Franziska Roth and Gabriela Suter. And maybe all the others pushing themselves in the foreground, not to be spoken of until now. We have until the election in April, still plenty of time.
